The flavors and the seasoning is so on point and the staff of Siri really friendly. The ginger drink was so so good and the lobster roll...

I think everyone just about has a local spot that they love going to and I would say this is mine. Ive tried about half the menu and have never bern disappointed. Shout out to the rice and peas, pasta, and tacos. The music is a vibe and depending on the night you come in the bar area is pretty much a party. But most importantly the drinkssss, the bartenders know how to make sure you have a good night, they are the real MVPs.

If you care about service in a Caribbean Restaurant in NY then you are at the wrong place. As a Trinidadian this is my first time going to a Trinidadian restaurant. Only because I'm loyal to my grandparent's cooking And I have to say im in shocked! I am definitely going BACK. We ordered so much food and it is too delicious! First time ordering the Jambalasi snapper and I have to say it's a bit sweet to my taste but it's amazing and delicious. The stew chicken is my absolute favorite. Reminds me of home. The macaroni pie is crazy. It looks small but after eating your whole meal you'll be so STUFFED AND FULL.

My friend and I decided to head here for a last minute dinner on Sunday. We arrived at 7pm and was seated immediately. We had perfect timing because we got one of the two tables that were available and it got packed right after. It gets pretty loud in here and they have good music playing in the background. They also had the All-star game on. Service was lacking and this could be due to the fact that gratuity is automatically included (18% or 20% for parties of 4 or more). Service- We were seated for at least 5 minutes before our server came to the table and said he'd be with us shortly. No name or introduction but whatever, no big deal. We finally place our drink and appetizer order. 20 minutes later our appetizers arrived but the drinks were still M.I.A. and we had no side plates. Umm okay. Few minutes later drinks arrived along with the plates we requested. It would take another 30 minutes before we were able to place our order for the entrees. The only plus to this is that the entrees came out fairly fast (10-15 mins). Drinks- a huge part of the 4 stars given! The drinks were REALLY good and strong, especially the "ochi vibe". I originally ordered the frozen rum punch and my friend had the ochi vibe but it was so strong, she took my rum punch instead. We didn't bother ordering more drinks because the service was a bit too slow. Food- we started with the taco sampler 2 which has chicken, shrimp, and salmon (sampler 1 has fish instead of chicken). The tacos were actually pretty good! They were flavorful and moist. I had the oxtail with garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli. The potatoes tasted plain, not like garlic mashed but it was good nonetheless. The oxtail was well seasoned and tender, exactly what I was craving. My friend had the jerk salmon which was cooked perfectly. It wasn't over cooked or dried out and the jerk sauce over it was pretty good. We also ordered another taco sampler to go. Although the service needs some improvement, the review went from a 3 to 4 star because as the night went on, our server, who still never said his name, became Mr. personality when he was at our table. The food and drinks were definitely worthy of the price as well.

Tasty Caribbean food, chill atmosphere, great music and vibes! Food: - Trinidadian/Caribbean cuisine- the menu contains a wide variety of Caribbean foods such as oxtail, stew chicken, callaloo, cou cou, fish, and much more! There are also other options such as wings and tacos to cater to everyone liking. The food has authentic and excellent flavor. A bit on the pricey side than normal Caribbean order and pick up restaurants, however you are paying for the atmosphere. - They also have alcohol beverages with a twist of the Caribbean such as Sorrel mojitos, Sorrel margaritas, etc. The drinks were strong, fragrant, and tasty. - Entree pick: Stew chicken with a side of callaloo and Macaroni pie... absolutely delicious! Everything on my plate was a hit. The entrees can be served with optional sides such as potato salad, fried plantains, Cole slaw, mashed potato, stew peas... the list goes on. The Macaroni pie was so savory and flavorsome, it paired perfectly with the stew chicken and calalloo. The calalloo was also very delicious. Absolutely no complaints with my dish. - Entree pick: Fried snapper topped with creole shrimp served with a side of Macaroni pie and rice and peas. The rice and peas was fluffy and well seasoned. Again, the Macaroni was a hit! The fish was flaky and tender, seasoned, and cooked to perfection. The well seasoned creole shrimp complimented the fish very well. Seating: - the restaurant is very small. They definitely need a bigger space to accommodate the high demand. However, it was intimate, dim lights, great music, and a chill vibe. Parking: - Street parking. Visitors... you must know how to parallel park. Lol Staff: - Pleasant staff. Being that this was my first time here they didn't rush me. The waiter was friendly and answered any questions I had. He gave great recommendations on the beverages. The sorrel mojito and sorrel margarita was excellent. COVID 19 Regulations: - The staff wears masks. You must show proof of vaccination per NY state law to dine in. They sanitize after each patron. Overall: - Whenever I visit NY this place is a must have. I will definitely be back.
